6'8 power forward Nikoli Svetinovic will return to the Zips in 2011-12, his last year of eligibility. He was considering returning to Serbia to play pro ball, but decided to stay at Akron. Zeke Marshall will have his trusty right hand bigman for one more season.

Other news, Dakotah Euton (nicknamed "Whoton?") packed his bags and transferred. Where? Who cares. It's not like the first time he's jumped ship for one reason or another, doing so in high school and once before in college. Good luck.

Two players transfered to the Zips, 6'5 swingman Chauncy Gilliam from Maryland-Baltimore County, and 6'4 point guard Brian Walsh from Xavier.
